SPECIAL NOTICE. 


Since November 1st, 1S92, the Type Foundries of the John Ryan Co., John G. Mengel & Co., 
Chas. J. Cary & Co. (Baltimore Type Foundry), and Hooper, Wilson & Co., have been conducted 
under one management, the name being John R yan Foundry, Baltimore. All correspondence, 
checks, etc., should be so directed. 

The stock of all the Foundries will be found at the John Ryan Foundry, where sorts, etc., 
for the various faces formerly cast by the several Foundries may be obtained. This arrange¬ 
ment economizes time and gives to the printer a service much more satisfactory than was 
formerly possible. 

If it is desired to open an account at a foundry where you have no acquaintance, send refer¬ 
ences or the money. Or, if you wish a cut or small package, send the money; it does not pay to 
charge it. Confidence is of especial value in rendering business relations pleasant, and nothing 
else so tends to give confidence as prompt payment. 

The weight of a single parcel by mail is limited to four pounds. The rate is one cent per 
ounce. But it is safer and generally cheaper to forward over two pounds by express, and over 
fifty pounds by. freight. Goods cannot be sent to Canada by mail. 

If goods fail to arrive within a reasonable time, notify us and we will send a tracer after 
them. If freight charges seem too heavy, advise us of the rate and amount paid. On the arrival 
of goods, check them by the bill, and notify us at once of any shortage or discrepancy. 

Remittances should be by New York draft (preferred), check or postal money order. 

After goods have been properly dispatched, whether by mail, express or freight, the law 
decides that they are at the purchaser’s risk. 

Terms cash, when special time is not agreed upon. Prices subject to change without notice. 


THE POINT SYSTEM. 


This new labor-saving system of type bodies has for its unit a division of space called 
a point. This unit is exactly the twelfth part of the Pica, and all the other bodies are multiples 
of and are measured by it. This enables the printer to use the different sizes in combination 
with each other without any trouble in the matter of justification—a thing almost impossible 
with the old bodies. 

Tn relation to space measurement, 83 ems of the standard Pica (12-point) body are equal 
to 35 centimeters of the metrical system of measure. 12 points is equal to .100 of an inch. 

The full Point System is as follows:

Each size is a factor. Three Nonpareils (6}*are a Great Primer (18); three Breviers (8) are 
a Double Pica (24) ; a Pica (12) and a Semi-JB^wier—two 6-to-Pica leads (4) are Columbian 
(16); a Double English (28) and a Brevier (8) are a Double Great Primer (36), and a Long Primer 
(10) and a Nonpareil (6) are a Columbian (16). So with all the other sizes making up the 
combination of two or more sizes of type in a word or line, the simplest thing imaginable 
in composition.

SUGGESTIONS TO PRINTERS. 

In ordering sorts to match type you already have, 
state the number of face as well as size of body; or 
if you cannot do this, then send a capital letter II 
and a lower case m, as little used as possible, of the 
fonts the sorts are to work with; also state number 
of pounds or ounces you wish of each particular 
sort. 

Job fonts, such as Title, Antique, Clarendon, Orna¬ 
mented, etc. (except some Scripts that ordinary 
spaces and quads will not work with), are put up 
without spaces and quads, and if you want them it 
will be necessary to mention it when ordering. 

HINTS ON THE PURCHASE OF TYPE. 

Select faces and bodies carefully. Buy according 
to your ability and need, but only what you can use 
to profit. Consider where you can use a face before 
you purchase it. Don’t buy it because it is a pretty 
style; it may be pretty and yet unsuitable for your 
general w T ork. 

Buy as large fonts as you can afford. One font of 
500 pounds of Long Primer is more useful and more 
durable than two fonts Long Primer and Bourgeois 
of 250 pounds each. Small fonts are unequally and 
unduly worn. The two small fonts will cost more, 
earn less and wear out sooner than one large font. 

Select uniform faces as far as possible. The plain 
symmetry of uniform faces is always pleasing. For 
a large office it is most desirable to select complete 
series of a number of useful faces. It saves the 
compositor’s time and the uniformity of the work 
pleases the eye. In such case let these series be very 
perceptibly unlike; but in all cases maintain the 
uniformity of each series. Do not allow your cus¬ 
tomers to choose for you. To buy faces without 
system, to please a passing fancy, is sure to cause 
trouble. 

Order sorts suitable for your own peculiar class 
of work. The assortment sold by the Founder is for 
general work only. Tiie special work, which may 
require a profusion of figures, capitals, points, etc., 
must have these special sorts added to the font. 

Have plenty of leads. The free use of leads is not 
only profitable in measurement, but is economical 
in extending the capacity of the font. 

PROPORTIONS OF TYPE. 

Regular 100-lb. fonts of Body Type are propor¬ 
tioned as follows: 

lbs. 07.

The above figures are estimated for Brevier, and 
the proportion of letters of other sizes to the pound 
may easily be obtained by comparison. 

A pair of ordinary cases holds 50 lbs. of type. 

STANDARD SIZES OF NEWSPAPERS. 

The following are the regular sizes of newspapers 
in most general use. We would advise parties plan¬ 
ning new newspapers, to adopt one of these stand¬ 
ard sizes. Width of column, 13 Pica ems. Nonpa¬ 
reil column rules are used for 4, 5, 6 and 7-column 
papers; brevier column rules for 8 and 9-columns. 
The length of column given here is face measure¬ 
ment.

RULE TO CALCULATE THE SPEED OF PULLEYS. 

Example 1.— To find the size of driving: Multiply 
the diameter of the driven by the number of revo¬ 
lutions it should make, and divide the product by 
the revolutions of the driver. The quotient will be 
the size of the driver. 

Example 2.— The diameter and revolutions of 
the driver being given, to find the diameter of the 
driven that shall make a given number of revolu¬ 
tions: Multiply the diameter of the driver by its 
number of revolutions, and divide the product by 
number of revolutions of the driver. The quotient 
will be the size of the driven. 

Example 3.—To find number of revolutions of the 
driven pulley: Multiply the diameter of the driver 
by its number of revolutions, and divide by diam¬ 
eter of driver. The quotient will be the number of 
revolutions of the driven.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ORDERING WOOD TYPE. 

In ordering wood type, write plainly the full title 
of letter, stating the size of font (whether it is 3 A, 

4 A, or 5 A,) and whether it is caps, caps and figures, 
or caps, lower case and figures, that is wanted. It 
will prevent the possibility of mistakes if the total 
number of characters and the list price of the font ; 
is stated. 

Figures are put up in fonts of 26, 37, 48 and 52, 
for 2, 4, 5 and 6 -A fonts, but 26 figures only will be 
sent unless otherwise ordered. 

In ordering sorts, send, if possible, one of each of 
the letters wanted. This will insure exact copies. 

Wood type should always be kept in a cool, dry i 
place. To clean the surface, use a soft, oiled rag—it 
is ruinous to use lye or water. Our wood type has 
a smooth and highly polished face, and if properly 
cleaned and stored will last for years. The best 
way to store wood type is to put it away in a dust- 
tight cabinet, of which a variety of styles are made. 

If it is not so stored, all large wood type should be j 


set up on the edge, lengthwise, when put away, so 
both sides may be equally exposed to the air, to 
prevent warping.

HOW TO ESTIMATE BODY TYPE. 

To estimate the quantity of solid type required 
for newspaper or book work, find the number of 
square inches to be set, and divide the same by 4, 
which will give the approximate weight of matter 
in pounds; to which add 25 per cent, for sorts, or 
dead letters remaining in the case. 

One square inch of type weighs 4 ounces, heavy.

AGATE No. 5. 

(Five and a-half Point.) 


It is evident that the peaceful spirit of this free 
country is not infused into every foreigner who takes 
out his naturalization papers. 

Aristides was shelled out of the city of Athens 
because it bored the citizens to hear him so contin¬ 
ually called just. 

Although America had been discovered years be¬ 
fore Shakespeare’s time, the great author has not 
alluded to the New World anywhere in his plays. 

The only license in the State that remains at the old 
rate is the marriage license, though the attachments 
are dear. 

The pharmacists of Paris have expressed the opin¬ 
ion that plants in rooms are not detrimental to health 
as generally supposed, but on the contrary are benefi¬ 
cial, especially to consumptives. 


It is known to some of your members that I feel a 
warm interest in what concerns the welfare of all who 
work for wages, and in the wise management of the 
trades unions and other kindred organizations it has 
become advisable for them to establish for the promo¬ 
tion of their true interests. This feeling being especi¬ 
ally strong towards the Printers’ Union, with whose 
members I have had close and very satisfactory busi¬ 
ness relations for many years, it is my earnest desire, 
in which I am heartily joined by my friend, Mr. A. J. 
Drexel, to extend to the time-honored International 
Typographical Union, as the representative of the 
united craft in North America, some expression more 
substantial than words. How to do this in a way that 
may produce lasting good has engaged the thoughts 
of both Mr. Drexel and myself, and we conclude that 
your Union, or such trustees as you may select for the 
purpose, will know better than ourselves how that 
good can be best accomplished.

The United States has produced many remarkable men, and from our

complications there may, we can reasonably expect to produce men to steer 
us safely through them. When men rise above self, there is everything to 
expect. Baltimore is but a spot of our country, and in no way exceptional; 
it contains many monuments to prove that selfishness does not consume the 
soul; that men, wrapped up in the affairs of life, are not unmindful of the 
welfare of the general public. 

Johns Hopkins founded in Baltimore a university and hospital, both of 
which promise to surpass anything of the kind accomplished by the liberality

for the purpose. He was born a short distance from Baltimore in 1795 
and died in 1873. He devoted his life to business activity, and many

The third and most masterly stroke of this great lawgiver, by which he struck a yet more effectual blow against 
luxury and the desire of riches, was the ordinance he made that they should all eat in common, of the same bread 
and same meat, and of kinds that were specified, and should not spend their lives at home, lying on costly couches 
at splendid tables, delivering themselves up into the hands of their tradesmen and cooks, to fatten them in corners 
like greedy brutes, and to ruin not their minds only, but their very bodies, which, enfeebled by indulgence and 
excess, would stand in need of long sleep, warm bathing, freedom from work, and, in a word, of as much care and 
attention as if they were continually sick. It was certainly an extraordinary thing to have brought about such a 
result, but a greater yet to have taken away from wealth, as the philosopher Theophrastus observes, not merely the 
property of being coveted, but its very nature of being wealth. For the rich, being obliged to go to the same table 
with the poor, could not make use of or enjoy their abundance, nor so much as please their vanity by looking at or 
showing it. So that the proverb that Plutus, the god of riches, is blind, was nowhere in all the world literally verified 
but in Sparta. It was there, indeed, that he was not only blind, but like a picture, without either life or motion 
Nor were they allowed to take food at home first, and then attend the public tables, for every one had an eye on those 
who did not eat and drink like the rest, and reproached them with being dainty and effeminate. This last ordinance 
in particular exasperated the wealthier men. They collected in a body against Lycurgus, and from ill words came 
to throwing stones, so that at length he was forced to run out of the market-place and make to the sanctuary, to save 
his life; by good-hap he outran all, except one Alcander, a young man otherwise not ill-accomplished, but hasty and 
violent, who came up so close to him that, when he turned to see who was near him, he struck him upon his face 
with a stick, and put out one of his eyes. Lycurgus, so far from being daunted and discouraged, stopped short and 
showed his disfigured face and eye beat out to his countrymen; they, dismayed and ashamed at the sight, delivered 
Alcander into his hands to be punished, and escorted him home, with expressions of great concern for his ill-usage 
Lycurgus, having thanked them for the care of his person, dismissed them all, excepting only Alcander ; and, taking 
him with him into his house, neither did nor said anything severely to him, but, dismissing those whose place it was 
bade Alcander to wait upon him at table. The young man, who was of an ingenuous temper, did as he was ordered 
without murmuring; and, being thus admitted to live with Lycurgus, he had ample opportunities to observe in 
him, besides his gentleness and calmness of temper, an extraordinary sobriety and an indefatigable industry; and 
so, from an enemy, became one of his most zealous admirers, and told his friends and relations that Lycurgus was 
not that morose and ill-natured man they had formerly taken him for, but the one mild and gentle character of the 
world. And thus did Lycurgus, for the chastisement of his fault, make of a wild and passionate young man one of 
the discreetest citizens of Sparta. In memory of this accident, Lycurgus built a temple to Minerva, surnamed

The third and most masterly stroke of this great lawgiver, by 
which he struck a yet more effectual blow against luxury and 
the desire of riches, was the ordinance he made that they should 
all eat in common, of the same bread and same meat, and of 
kinds that were specified, and should not spend their lives at 
home, lying on costly couches at splendid tables, delivering 
themselves up into the hands of their tradesmen and cooks, to 
fatten them in corners, like voracious brutes, and to ruin not 
their minds only, but their very bodies, which, enfeebled by 
indulgence and excess, would stand in need of long sleep, warm

“Turn, gentle hermit of the dale, 

And guide my lonely way 
To where yon taper turns the vale 
With hospitable ray.

With fainting steps and slow, 
Where wilds immeasurably spread, 
Seem lengthening as I go.”

To lure thee to thy doom.

Lamartine was born of aristocratic parents 
at Macon, on the 2lst of October, 1791. His 
father, whose name was DePrat, was major of 
a regiment of cavalry in the service of Louis 
XVI, and his mother was companion to the 
sister of Louis Philippe, her mother being 
Madame des Rois, under-governess to the fam¬ 
ily of the Prince of Orleans. The Revolution 
which first swept away the crown and sceptre 
of France, reduced the family of DePrat from 

stated periods, their child, in order that the father 
might be solaced in his sad and gloomy cell, by 
beholding him through the gratings of his window.

Men of Genius have usually been 
condemned to compose their best works, 
which are usually their earliest ones* 
under the roof of a garret; and very few 
literary characters have lived, like Pliny 
and Voltaire, in a villa or chateau of their 
own. It has not therefore often happened 
that a man of genius could raise local 
emotions by his intellectual suggestions.

A guiltless feast I bring; 

A scrip with herbs and fruits supplied, 
And water from the spring.” 

Soft as the dew from heaven descends, 
His gentle accents fell:

benefit you have conferred on me. For what do you think was this 
honor in comparison with that of being placed in the ranks with your 
authors? It is to rank with the consuls and senators of Rome; it is 
to be made fellow with the Sallusts and Ciceros! What glory it is 
to rightfully say, 1 am a member of this grand immortal republic; 1 
have been received in the society of the demi-gods! Practically, we 
live together at Leyden under the same roof. Thanks to your kind-

COMIQUE 


The above Series was designed and gotten up to meet the wants of printers desiring to combine Brass Rule with 
their work, without the troublesome justification necessary with type as usually cast; and this can be done only by 
foundries using the new system of bodies. The face of each type is in the center of the body, which is large enough 
to give the space between the face and the rule without any leads or cardboard; and the End Pieces are cast on 
the body that the type and rule make, which are always regular sizes. Our Pica being the same standard as all 
other foundries, it is not necessary to order rules to match same specially, as regular 12- or 6-to-Pica Rule from any 
foundry justifies exactly.

This is a unique and handy type, that may be used, not only for regular display lines, but more than half of the letters are 
so slotted nr mortised on the sides as to admit of the insertion of types of smaller bodies, thus producing 
novel and striking effects, which are heightened by the aid of the extension ornaments. 

The letters C, E, F, L, Q and T, are made each in two distinct widths. 

The fount is complete with points and figures.

Be it remembered, ®l)at on tljis fourth dan of July, eighteen hundred and 
ninety-three, before me, a Notary public in and for tlje (City of Borne, 
State of (Georgia, personally appeared Solomon ®rnstworthy, printer, 
ml)o affirmed that tf>e <£ype purchased at tlje John By an foundry, in 
Baltimore, Ijas prooed to be tlje best, both on account of its wearing 
qualities, smoothness of finish and superior metal used in its manufacture. 

And tlje said Solomon trustworthy hath further affirmed, that in all 
l)is dealings with tl)c officers of John Byan .foundry they l) tU,c proued 
themselues aline to tlje interests of [tlje fraternity, and are, therefore, deseru- 
ing of the patronage of all who work at the art of printing. 

Jn testimony whereof, J Ijniie set my Ijund and affixed my seal on 
the day aforesaid. Cycnrgus Scribe, N. p.

Mr. Careful Printer, 

Printersville. 

Dear Sir: 


We would also call your attention to 
our 12-Point Type Writer, which you might prefer 
to the Earle. They are both cast of superior 
metal, and you would not err in taste in select¬ 
ing either face. 

Both are handsome and useful, and we 
shall be pleased to receive an order for either, 
or both. These lines are printed in 12-Point 
Type Writer. 

Our stock of new and beautiful faces 
is large and complete, and embraces the handsom¬ 
est and latest designs of the various Foundries. 
Soliciting your valued orders, we are, 

Yours very respectfully,

This Calendar presents a bold, handsome appearance, and, unlike all other Perpetual Calendars offered 
for sale, has no hairlines to break off. The style of type used, as well as the rules, has been selected 
for its wearing quality, and, with the most ordinary care, will last a lifetime. It can easily be changed 
from one month to another in a few minutes. When desired, the blank spaces at the beginning and end of 
each month can be made into single spaces and utilized for advertising purposes. The figures being 
separate, the Calendar can readily be worked in two colors. The font contains the following number of 
pieces: 


28 point Unique Gothic Figures—53 pieces. 

1 2 34 5 G 


18 point Unique Gothic Letters and Figures 
41 pieces. 

ABCD 1234

with the various faces of type in the office—especially those faces seldom used—and much time is saved in 
distributing. When printing labels, it is well to add to the title the initials of the foundry where the tvpe 
is made. This will often save time and confusion when ordering either sorts or duplicate fonts.

THE HAWKINS COUNTER. 

The Cheapest Instrument on the market for indicatin'] the number of 
movements of any machine to which it is attached. 


The manufacturers claim the 
following advantages over oth¬ 
ers now in use: 

It has no springs that are de¬ 
flected to within 1-100 of their 
limit of elasticity; their life is 
therefore practically without 
limit. 

There are no movements in 
it but those of the simplest me¬ 
chanical kind, and will never 
give the annoyance generally 
inseparable from this kind of 
machine by getting out of or¬ 
der. 

It may be instantly set to 
zero or at any desired number, 
from any point or number, by 
simply turning either diget 
wheel. 

It will stand the roughest use 
and the highest speed, without 
failure to indicate correctly. 

They are the lowest priced 
counters now sold that will 
indicate correctly and wear 
well. 


They will indicate from zero to 100.000. and always exhibit the correct number in large clear figures, 
nearly as close together as the’.same sized figures would be written or printed. They occupy a space of but 
4X6 inches. PRICE. OYLY 810.00

THE IDEAL TABLETINC APPARATUS. 

This is a simple, common-sense apparatus, designed to be 
^ used by practical printers. It has no clamps or screws to be 

operated, and is effective, rapid and thorough. Joking up by 
hand will be discontinued by every good printer who once sees 
the Ideal in use. 

Figure 1 shows the apparatus with iron hose plate in position, 
forming the bottom of the box, and a small pile of sheets resting 
upon it. All trash, dust, etc., is sifted 
out as the sheets are put in, the two 
side pieces not coming quite together 
and thus leaving an opening for that 
purpose. 

Fig. 2 shows the pile of sheets 
ready for gluing. Ha ving the sheets 
in tiie box, as shown in Fig. 1, and 
having placed the iron brick on top 
of the pile, it is necessary only to 
grasp the apparatus by the handle 
and leg and carry the whole outfit to 
the gluing table or stone; by putting 
it in a perpendicular position the 
iron base plate will rest upon the stone on its four legs, with the pile of sheets 
upon it in perfect order and tightly compressed by the iron brick. Now, con¬ 
tinuing to hold the box in a perpendicular position, withdraw it from under 


the base plate,which is made possible by an ingenious and simple arrangement 
of the bottom frame of the box, and the pile is left standing upon the base 
plate, all ready for the glue brush.

WEAVER’S TABLET PRESS. 

Price, $5.00. 

The one style takes any size paper from 1 to 16 
inches square and from 10b to 5,000 sheets, holds 
them securely, presents the edges of the paper free 
to the brush, and as the block of paper is not sus¬ 
pended between pressure at all, it never slips or 
slides, aiql yet does not require so great pressure 
that the pads swell and crack after being removed 
from the press. 

The block of paper is not disturbed at all. but the 
squaring boards are taken away, leaving the paper 
unmoved. 

It need not be fastened to any place, but can be 
used anywhere, and set under the table when not 
in use. 

It is made of iron and hard wood, securely put 
together, and is strong and light. 

It is a cheap tool, and those who have purchased 
it are well satisfied with their outlay.

BATES AUTOMATIC NUMBERING 
MACHINE. 

Every figure disc changes automatically in its 
consecutive order, from 1 to the full numerical 
capacity of the machine. This cannot, therefore, 
be classed with the so-called “Automatic Num¬ 
bering Machines,” which are self-changing to 999 
only. 

The changing from consecutive to duplicate and 
continuous numbering is effected by the mere 
moving of the pointer in front of the dial. 

The figures are placed close together, insuring 
the most desirable compact spacing. 

One of the important improvements this machine 
possesses is its inking device. The figures receive 
ink automatically from a thick felt pad, which is 
held against them by spring pressure when at rest 
To re-ink the pad it is not necessary to remove it 
from the ink carriage, as formerly. The finger- 
piece located on the upper part of the inking-appa- 
ratus is pressed downward, when the inner frame 
of the carriage opens outwardly, thus completely 
exposing the pad for a fresh application of ink. 
By pressing upward on this frame it locks itself in 
its proper position. 



This is one of the most substantial little tools we 
have ever seen. Its mechanical construction is a 
marvel of perfection. It gives tiie printer a first- 
class machine at a moderate price. 

This machine can be used on any printing press 
by locking it in a chase or form of type, the same as 
a cut or electrotype, and it numbers consecutively 
from 1 to 100,000. It occupies a space of only 
1 fi-tit of an inch in length by 1 1-32 inch in width. 
It is entirely self-contained and automatically 
changes each disc of figures in consecutive order, 
from 1 to its numerical capacity. 

A movable fixture accompanying each machine, 
upon the printing surface of which is engraved the 
nscription “No.”, may be so attached as to pre¬ 
cede the figures, but as it has nothing whatever to 
do with its operation, the machine is used without 
it equally as well. 

The extreme height to which the figure discs rise 
above the surface of the type after each impression 
is but 3.(54 of an inch, which is so slight that the 
rollers cannot be torn or in any way injuriously 
affected. While an impression is being taken, the 
figure discs descend to their lowest position, which 
is type high. 

Should any particular job require that the num¬ 
bering be printed in a different color, the machine 
may be placed in the chase by itself, tiie material 
passed through the press again, and all t b ( 
tages of an expensive raging Machine, so far as 
other work than paging is concerned, may be de¬ 
rived. 

A locking pawl retains the numbering wheels in 
the downward or type-high position, preventing 
them from changing while the form is being made 
ready. A slight pressure with a bodkin upon a lever 
makes the machine ready for numbering.

GAUGE PINS. 


The styles termed “ Gauge Pins ” are fastened in the tympan, and are stuck through the top sheets 
only. The sizes given refer to the height of the gauge-head, or length of the lip, or both. The lip (tongue) 
is that part which projects forward at the top of the gauge-head. The Low sizes are a Pica high, and the 
High one quarter inch over all. The Medium are half way between. The “short lips” project but slightly: 
the “long lips” about one quarter inch, and the others about as illustrated. The sizes as to Gauge Pins 
make no difference in the price. Those styles made with a tooth or teeth at the bottom of the gauge-head 
are adjustable. 

Description of Numbers— Which now apply to all styles made.—No. O, small in every way; No - l, 
Low; No. ‘2, Medium; No. 3, High; each with one-sixteentli inch lip. No. 4, Low, little or no lip. No. 5,

GALLEYS. 


LINCOLN ALL-BRASS GALLEY. 



The most Durable, Convenient and Useful Galley ever invented. Saves Time, Money and Space. 

The advantages of this Galley are apparent to all. There is no handling of sidesticks or quoins. It is 
compact, the only detachable portion being the clamp at end of galley. The type is always secure and held 
intact during composition, making up or standing matter. 

When sufficient type is placed upon the galley, close up the side, which is caught by a spring catch at 
the head of the galley, adjust the clamp tightly against the matter at the end and turn the lever to the 
left. In correcting, loosen the matter by simply turning the lever to the right. The narrowness of the 
galley makes it very convenient in correcting, as it gives the free use of all the boxes in the lower case- 
The saving of space on the stone and bank is also a very important feature in all offices. 

When ordering galleys, give the exact width of columns.

DEARING LEAD DISTRIBUTING GALLEY. 

The invention jof Mr. O. A. Bearing, and its purpose is indicated by its name. It is a half-rimmed 
wood galley, with a printed scale on the face, covered with glass. The lines are just a Pica apart and are 
plainly numbered from 1 to GO, each fifth line and number being more heavily printed than the rest, as 
shown in the cut. The leads, slugs, or brass rule to be sorted are laid edgewise on the galley across the 
lines, which register at once their respective lengths. A galley full is quickly distributed by removing 
successively the longest lengths until it is emptied. Price, $1.25.

EMMERICH BRONZINO MACHINE. 



THE PEERLESS QUOIN. 

Their contiguous faces are solid bearings; cannot 
tilt; motion of key draws them together, does not 
force them apart. Its point of contact is against 
the base of the socket, their strongest point. Any¬ 
body can use them at first sight. 


This machine will bronze and dust from 900 to 
1500 sheets an hour. The sheets are fed similarly 
to those fed to a cylinder printing press, are held 
by grippers, and delivered with the bronzed side 
up. Heavy cardboard or the lightest paper cav be 
bronzed equally well as sheets of ordinary weight, 
and there is no adjusting of the machine required 
for papers of different thickness.

IMPROVED 

/T\etal 3eetioi?al Blocks. 

WITH HOOKS AND CATCHES. 


SUPERIOR TO ANY OTHER IN THE MARKET. 



These Sectional Blocks, with hooks and catches, furnish the best and cheapest mounting for plates. 
They may he quickly made up into any size page, will last longer than wood blocks, and greatly reduce 
the labor for making ready, as they furnish an even, unyielding and perfectly reliable base for the plates 
and bring them to the proper height for printing. They are much better than wood bases, as they will not 
shrink or warp. The above cut shows a page of the Sectional Blocks, with hooks and catches, ready for 
the plate. The hooks are operated by a ratchet, the same as those on patent wood blocks. The sections 
are made in the following sizes; 2X4, 2XS, 4X4, 4X8, and 8X8 Pica ems. In five minutes a page can be 
made up to fit a plate of any 7 size. Being made with the utmost accuracy, they 7 lock up readily without 
springing. They may be used on either cylinder or platen presses with equal facility, and are particularly- 
adapted to book printing, as they are convenient to lock up in forms of any number of pages and easily 
changed to accommodate various sizes of plates. 

The manufacturers of the Improved Sectional Blocks have overcome all the objections that apply to 
the sectional blocks in common use. The hooks for these move freely and are not affected by the lock-up. 
Closer margins can be made with them than with any other. All sections are planed and trimmed, and 
are guaranteed perfectly accurate. All the catches are of uniform height and thickness.

SPACE A ND QUAD CASE. 

No job office should be without several of these 
useful labor-saving cases. They save the quads 
and spaces as well as time. 

Price, each. .$1.00 



THE BALTIMORE CASE. 

This case is our latest contribution to the money¬ 
saving devices for the benefit of the job printers of 
the country. It is a case that will contain a 25-lb. 
font of type and a 10-lb. font of Brass Leaders to 
match, all in one compact case. 

Brass Leaders are bought by practical printers 
from motives of economy. They are as much a 
part of the font as quads and spaces, and are not 
economical if not in the same case with the type. 
This is the first successful attempt to bring them 
together without impairing the usefulness of the 
case. 

Price, each..:.$i .25

THE SPENCER GALLEY CABINETS. 



THE IMPERIAL GALLEY CABINET. 

Made to fit and hold any size and number of gal" \ 
leys, from 50 up to 300, only to order. Prices much 
less than usual styles. Estimates furnished. Tops 
fitted with the Rearing All-Brass Standing Galley 
if desired. Offices having a large number of galleys 
will find our “Imperial” Galley Cabinets far supe¬ 
rior to any galley racks. 


Quite a variety of styles 
of iron arm galley racks are 
made, the one here shown 
being the least expensive. 
The brackets have a linn 
bearing against the angle 
of the wooden frame and 
are held in place by lugs or 
screws, making a strong, 
durable rack.

ROLLING GALLEY RACK. 

This Back is a novelty in every way. It is made 
of seasoned material, stained cherry and varnished. 
It is mounted on the new patent Giant Direct- 
Bearing Casters, which cost $1.75 per set; and the 
Brackets—12 pairs on each side, 24 pairs in all—are 
the celebrated Reversible Galley Brackets. 

Price complete, as shown in cut, $25.00. 

Imposing stones must be in the best light, and if 
an old-style stationary galley rack is used, and is at 
all conveniently placed near to the stone, that much 
more of the most valuable space is taken up. On 
the other hand, the Bolling Back, when not in use, 
can be stowed away in any otherwise unavailable

LABOR-SAVING WOOD FURNITURE CABINETS. 


We show below the different styles of Labor-saving Furniture Racks 
and invite a careful study of the list. Remember, that the most expensive 
way to buy wood furniture is to get full lengths, cut it yourself, then pile it 
pell-mell into a drawer, thus wasting more time in handling than several 
of these labor-saving, time-saving and money-saving Cabinets will cost. 
The furniture in all our Cabinets is planed perfectly smooth and finished in 
oil, with tiie size stamped on end of each piece.

pieces of each length, or 560 pieces in all. 8.00

partments in all, and same furniture as in Cabinet B. 10.oo

MOVABLE DRYING RACKS. 



PEERLESS FEEDERS. 

This new and much-needed device, for the quick, 
easy and clean handling of sheets being fed to the 
press, every employing printer should keep in his 
pressroom and insist upon its being used by the 
feeders. Moistening the fingers, or using a rubber 
shield, soils the sheet, giving the job an untidy 
appearance, causing much waste of material and 
consequent expense to the office. 

Can be adjusted to size, and used on the fore or 
middle finger. Put up in neat wooden boxes, and 
will be sent by mail, postage prepaid, for $1.25 per 
dozen. Send your order for a box and try them. 



ZINC AND BRASS OILERS. 

Brass, 35? and GO'/' each. 


This has movable racks with narrow slats on 
which to dry paper when it comes from the press. 
They are made in two sizes, to take paper 24X36 
or 28X42. The racks may be used independently of 
the frame if desired, being so constructed that 
when piled one upon another there is considerable 
space between them. The frame is on casters.

A NOVEL AND UNIQUE JOB STAND. 


MOST CONVENIENT AND CHEAP CABINET. 


DESCRIPTION. 


i ■s. 


The Maryland Stand has racks for 48 two-third California cases, 2 two-third space and quad cases 
and allows for 2 pairs on top—in all, 54 cases. The cases go in from the back of the stand, so that while 
one or two compositors can work without being disturbed, from the news cases on top, job compositors 
have free access to the fifty cases on the other side. The two space and quad cases accommodate ten sizes 
of type. The upper runners in the central rack are left vacant and are provided with a pair of our newly- 
invented suspension hooks, by means of which any case taken from the racks can be placed in convenient 
position to set from, without stopping, and at exactly the same height and position as if placed on top of 
the stand. The ends of the stand are paneled. It will be found the cheapest cabinet on the market. 


Price of Stand, with paneled ends (practically dust-tight). $10.50 

" " with 54 cases, as above described. 50.00 

Two stands, with outside runners on one end of each, accommodating 

125 cases and occupying 2x14 feet of space, cases included. 112.00

at about $25 less cost

Each furnished with extra large and heavy' roller 
neatly covered with best felt blanket. 

Both are thoroughly constructed, are strong and 
substantial, with no part to regulate or get out of 
order; angle irons, attached to each end of frame 
door, act as brackets when it is open, and as catch 
when it is closed. The frame is of iron ; the closet is 
of walnut, very* handy for roller, ink and paper. 



PROOF ROLLER. 

On examination this Proof Roller will be found 
to resemble the ordinary brayer roller, with this 
difference—it operates on wheels. The wheels, with 
a spiral leverage, raise the india rubber impression 
cylinder a little over the proper height for taking 
an impression from a galley', which is supposed to 
be ly'ing flat upon an imposing stone or an ordinary' 
table. Tlie spiral springs yield to the pressure as 
the roller passes over the ty'pe, taking a perfectly 
legible proof. A pair of thumb screws make allow¬ 
ance for the difference in thickness between brass 
and wood galleys or no galley at all. It is equally' 
applicable to a job locked up in chase or tied with 
string. Size, 9 inches between wheels. 

Price, complete, $5.00.

QUOTATION 
RACK No. 2. 


Quotation Furniture Rack 
for 100 lbs. Size 36X7X4 
inches outside, and it will 
hold about 300 pieces. A 
separate box for each size, 
front flush and smooth and 
marked on top and bottom 
the lengths, and on side the 
widths. Racks on the same 
principle can be furnished 
to hold 200 pounds. 

This is one of the several 
styles of Racks for leads, 
wood and metal furniture, 
etc., which we show in this 
catalogue. For our special 
Racks we claim over others 
this advantage: the natural 
law of gravitation acts to 
throw the material into the 
correct position, instead of 
out of it. That is, furniture 
or the leads cannot tumble 
down out of place; it tumbles 
down into place. < )ur Racks 
are examples of “common 
sense applied to printing 
offices.” It is acknowledged 
by the trade that we are the 
headquarters for the man¬ 
ufacture of “ Money-saving 
Specialties,” and that our 
goods are unsurpassed in 
quality and finish.

IMPROVED METAL FURNITURE 
RACK. 

This cut shows front elevation, and plan of laying 
the font, of one of our Racks for holding 100-lb. font 
of Improved Metal Furniture. The size is 42X11X8 
inches, and each box will hold six pieces of each 
length, making the Rack contain 318 pieces, and a 
separate box for each of flfty-three sizes. The plan 
of laying will be found consecutive and natural, 
and is readily learned at a glance. The face of the 
rack is square, the back of each section being set in 
so as to allow each length to be flush with the front. 
Each piece lies on its side and the size is easily seen. 
The length is marked on each section at top and 
bottom, and the width on each side. The up and 
down sections are all of one length, and the cross 
sections all of one width. It is the most compact 
arrangement that can lie devised for storing this 
amount of furniture.

The Challenge Paper Cutter is built in the very 
best manner, and utmost care has been exercised 
in the construction of all parts, so that the highest 
degree of strength, accuracy and convenience may 
be obtained: and these three points are the essential 
qualities of a good lever cutter, adapted to varied 
uses of a printing office. 


THE 16-IN. CHALLENGE 

A most desirable feature of this machine is the 
“dip cut." The knife enters the paper at an anirle. 
the forward end being 5-15 of an inch lower than 
the other: yet when it reaches the cutting stick the 
knife is exactly parallel with the stick. The cut is 
thus made much easier than otherwise. 



The 16-ix. Challenge is the only small 
size cutter now being sold having a side 
gauge. The Tear gauge runs back 16 ^ 
inches. This gauge is 10 S inches long. 
which brings it!clo se to the sale gaime 
and enables the operator to use both in 
squaring the smallest Jobs. Side irauge 
is 9 : ; inches long. 

By simply; splitting large paper in half, 
this cutter’isTound to be as useful as the 
larger sizes.

These cutters are unquestionably the best in every 
respect of all power cutters manufactured. They 
are unequaled for durability, excellence of construc¬ 
tion. accuracy of work, rapidity of movement, and 
are in every particular the most reliable machines 
in the market. Their peculiar construction and 
perfect adjustment make them the strongest and 
most powerful machines in use. 

We would respectfully call your attention to the 
following points of superiority, which are wanting 
in other cutting machines : 

Superior proportions and construction of frame, 
giving vast strength and solidity without excess of 
metal. 

Superior manner of hanging and adjusting knife 
bar, thus relieving head or top of frame from undue 


strain during the cut, allowing easy and accurate 
adjustment of knife from either end. 

Superior arrangement of table, having slots or 
grooves for the traverse gauge to move in, thus 
preventing paper becoming wedged between the 
bottom of gauge and table. 

Superior arrangement of the clamp and traverse 
gauge in combination—construction is such as to 
permit stock to lie cut to last half inch, thus effect¬ 
ing great saving in paper and facilitating the cut¬ 
ting of small work. 

Superior position of clamp wheel, enabling the 
operator to clamp stock rapidly without stopping. 

Adjustable side gauges, front and back of clamp, 
facilitating the handling and cutting of small work. 

Simplicity of machine—no traps or springs of any 
kind ; all parts are easily accessible. 

Noiseless friction clutch for starting and stopping 
the machine, easily and without any jar, whereby 
a greatly increased speed is obtained without en¬ 
dangering the machine.

THE CARVER. 

A New Hand-Power Paper-Cutting Machine. 



Size, 33 Inches. Weight 1,700 Lbs. Price, $300.00. 


This is the quickest and most powerful Hand-power Paper Cutter ever made. We have them working 
in Baltimore offices, where they can be easily explained. 

It is in no way inferior or deficient to the renowned steam-power Cutter known as the Brown &|Carver* 

It is a New Design ! It has a New Name ! It is a New Cutter! 

Tlie machine has a pedestal base, to which are strongly bolted the upper frame and table, making a solid 
foundation for cutting. In addition to this admirable feature, it has the Grooved Table, which allows the 
bottom of the gauge fingers to move in grooves about l-32d of an inch below the surface of the table, pre¬ 
venting the sheets of paper being wedged between the table and gauge. 

It has the Interlocking or Close Gauge, allowing the stock to be cut to the last half inch, which is most 
valuable in cutting labels, cards and small work. 

It is the only paper-cutting machine having a mechanical appliance for changing the speed and power. 
The gears for transmitting power are so arranged that, by a simple movement of the lever, you can 
increase the speed and decrease the power adaptable for small work, or decrease the speed and increase the 
power adaptable for heavy work. 

It has the Double Clamp Screw, which insures equal pressure at all points—with the clamp almost par¬ 
allel with the table. 

The large gear wheel is cast from an accurately cut metal pattern, and is driven by a cast steel pinion * 
all the other gears are cut, giving an easy, noiseless movement when the machine is in operation. 

The adaptable construction of this machine renders it adequate to all paper cutting demands. 

The Shafts are all stee 1 .

of forty or fifty sheets, and do its work very well. 
It is the best cheap machine in the world.

Pin-Hole Perforating- Machine. 



The cut represents the New Pin- 
Hole Perforating Machine. The 
manufacturer claims that for dura¬ 
bility, strength, and general adapta¬ 
bility to the purposes for which it is 
intended, it stands second to none, 
having many advantages over all 
other machines. It will perforate a 
sheet 26 in. wide and any desired 
length. 

It consists of two die wheels placed 
in such a position as to register per¬ 
fectly, with no gearing to get out of 
order. 

It has a nicely finished table with 
gauge on side which can be quickly 
and accurately set at any desired dis¬ 
tance from point of perforation. 

An excellent feature of this ma¬ 
chine, and one that will be duly ap¬ 
preciated, is that it does the work in 
less than one-fourth the time con¬ 
sumed by any other machine, being 
run by hand or steam power. 

Price, $00.00.

The Franklin perforates 10 inches. Fivfe checks 
can be perforated without turning the sheet. The 
perforation is round and perfect. 

This machine is adapted to the wants of those re¬ 
quiring a small machine to perforate checks, stubs, 
labels, etc. The needles can be replaced at trifling 
expense. It is a machine well worth its cost. 

It will pay any printer to buy this machine, who 
prints checks, clothing tickets, 
price marks, and other matters 
requiring separation. There is a 
great variety of work which the 
small printing office can do with 
the aid of this machine which 
would otherwise go to the larger 
offices. With ordinary manage¬ 
ment the machine will pay for 
itself in a few months.

THE PEN-UNDERLIFTS 'HICKOK) 


THE SHEET LAPPER (HICKOKh 

HIS device lias as its object the Lapping of the 
tail of one sheet over the desired depth on the 
head of a preceding sheet, thus preventing the pens 
from ruling where a head is desired to he left blank, 
as in Ledger, Bill-head work, etc. This saves much 
time, as there is no lost space in feeding. The pens 
remain down constantly, as in feint-lining. No 
Striker is used while Lapping. Write for full par¬ 
ticulars. 

Price $75.00. Boxed, f. o. b. Cars at Factory. 

Illustration on Opposite Page. 


AYE two Underlift Bars with fingers for lifting 
individual pens or clusters of pens at desired 
points, and lowering them again upon the paper at 
any other desired points, thus enabling the opera¬ 
tor to strike from several head-lines, in addition to 
heads struck by Striker proper, at one feeding. 
These Underlift Bars are placed across the machine 
between the Beam and Mahogany Cylinder, carry¬ 
ing the Dogs or Holders for the Pen -lifters, and are 
operated by adj'ustable cams in double Cam-head on 
a higher shaft, also running across the machine, 
which shaft is driven from Striker proper by means 
of intermediate gears, thereby insuring positive 
uniform motion between the Striker proper and the 
Underlift attachments. (Seecut on other page.)

SOME OF THE ADVANTAGES OF OUR NEW “1890” PATTERN, 


No lost motion. 

Flic figure-head and disc thrown forward and ad¬ 
justed in a moment, by a device on no other 
machine. 

The only inking device used to-day that can possi¬ 
bly give perfect distribution. No streaking ok 
SPOTTING OF THE INK ON TIIE DISC. 

Only the rollers and disc to be cleaned in changing 
inks. 

The supply of ink kept up without the operator 
leaving his seat. 

Any number of colors may be worked on this ma¬ 
chine without expense for additional inking 
parts. 

No parts to lie changed in changing colors. 

Great depth for long sheets to hang back of feed 
table standard. 

Wide space from feed table to back main standard 
of machine, to accommodate high bound books 
having several blanks on a page from top to 
bottom to lie numbered. 


The only absolute and mechanically correct move¬ 
ment fora paging or numbering head is directly 
up and down. No other machine can be a 
lasting success. 

The head of our machine works in perpendicular 
hearings. The alignment and impression must 
be absolutely perfect. 

An “ impression screw ” regulates the impression 
as on a printing press. Can be done only on this 
machine. 

The longest smut band on any machine manufac¬ 
tured: works automatically after each impres¬ 
sion—same on foot or steam machines. Impossi¬ 
ble to slip. 

Power attachments may be added to foot-power 
machines at any time. This attachment is the 
neatest, most complete and compact made. Is 
perfect in every case. 

The pressure of a child’s foot will operate the steam 
attachments. An impression is made instantly, 
at the will of the operator, by merely touching 
a small treadle. 

A more convenient way to raise and lower the feed 
table than on any other make, by a screw in front 
of operator’s lap.

STANDARD MAILER 



ONLY $15.00 

NO ROYALTY, 


In offering this mailer to the trade we 
do so with the consciousness of having 
produced an article in every way superior 
to the older makes. We have simplified, 
strengthened and improved the mailing 
machine without materially altering the 
shape of the mailer. Anyone who has 
used the others will at once be able to 
operate ours with increased rapidity, 
because it is much lighter and more con¬ 
venient. That the machine is a favorite 
wherever used is attested by the numer¬ 
ous testimonials from those who use 
them daily. 

The machine was designed by a prac¬ 
tical mailer, who for many years was 
employed on one of Chicago’s largest 
dailies, and he has produced something 
that will do the greatest amount of work 
in the smallest space of time with less 
labor to the operator. 






It is economical. Is easy to learn. 

Its action is automatic, 
rt is not liable to get out of order. 

It is the lightest, most durable and 
rapid machine in existence. 

It is highly finished, nickel plated and 
every part can be duplicated. 

It is sold outright and not leased. No 
royalty is charged for its use.

This is a new preparation for making counter-dies 
for embossing on .Job presses. A small quantity of 
the composition is spread on the platen of the press, 
and an impression taken, forcing the composition 
into the die. This preparation differs materially 
from other substances used for the same purpose, 
having among its ingredients certain chemicals 
which are sensitive to the action of light. When 
dry. after a short exposure to light and air, the 
composition is of stone-like hardness, forming a 
most effective medium for forcing the paper or 
cardboard into the interstices of the die. Requires 
no heating, does not dry up in the jar, and is always 
ready for use. Complete instructions sent with 
every lot. Put up in screw top glass jars. Price 
per jar, 75 cents. 

Trial To enable printers unae- 

-1 quainted with the process 

of embossing to test the ease with which this work 
can be done, we will send a beautiful, electrotyped 
design of the words “Artistic Printing,” from which 
the die may readily be made with the composition, 
complete with trial size jar of composition, for $2. 
The cut can be used for cards or note headings, and 
printed in gold and embossed, with type matter in 
light blue ink, the effect is handsome. Write for 
circular, showing sample of the work.

THE CHANDLER & PRICE 

Old Style (“.ordoi) press. 


H M M M M ► 


._ C) 


T HIS press, while retaining all the desirable features of the justly celebrated Gordon, has many 
important improvements and advantages which no other Gordon press ever possessed. It is heavier 
and stronger, and, while being a very quiet, smooth, quick and easy running machine, will do all 
grades of printing, from the lightest to the very heaviest, in the best manner possible, and with the least 
danger of break or strain. In fact, there is no other job press now in existence better suited for general 
work; that will endure more years of actual service; 
that is less expensive to keep in repair; or that will 
withstand more abuse than the (’handler & Price 
press. 

The Side Arm and Shaft are forged from solid steel 
bars, without seam or weld, and are not steel castings 
or other inferior grade as might be advertised under 
the name of steel. Printers should bear in mind that 
there is a difference in the qualities of steel as there 
is of iron. The Cam Rollers are of hardened tool steel 
and, if properly oiled, will wear a long time. 

The Impression Throw-Off is perfect and excels all 
others hitherto introduced, being positive in its action 
and easily operated at any position of the platen, 
withont the use of spring, catch or clamp. The lever 
handle is in a most convenient place, yet away from 
all gear and danger, thus insuring the hand against 
accident. 

The Grippers are depressible, but cannot twist or turn 
in any direction or, by accident, get on or beneath 
the rollers, but are securely held in position. 

The Steam Fixtures, constructed on the mos 
proved principles, are simple, convenient, strong and 
easily operated by hand or knee. 

The Chase Clamp is also a great improvement over all old methods, being strong, simple and 
perfectly safe and reliable, yet instantaneous in action, and thus a time-saver. 

For complete distribution of ink, this press meets the demand. Adding to the original, double move¬ 
ments of the disk, the new improvements in both disk and roller carriers, whereby a greatly increased 
distribution is given, a perfection is reached in this respect which we believe to be unequalled by any 
other press now made. 

Regarding speed, these presses are geared to run rapidly by steam power, even faster than possible to 
feed them; while the nearly horizontal platen, with its long rest, makes them the most desirable of all 
presses for quick and easy feeding. 

X. U.—To those who contemplate purchasing a job press, we respectfully call their attention to the fact 
that we have sold and ha've in the hands of printers over three thousand of our Gordon presses, and 
never yet have been called upon to take one back; all having given satisfaction. Such is the result of 
superior material used, care in construction and sparing neither pains nor expense. We therefore claim 
that, while the dealer may charge you more for the Chandler & Price press than any other make of old 
style Gordons, (or possibly try to persuade you to accept another make), our press will be the cheaper in 
the end. It pays to purchase the best, most durable and most carefully finished machine—so be careful 
in ordering and distinctly state it is the Chandler A Price press you want and wil have .—Mfrx. Circular.

GORDON'S FRANKLIN PRESS 



THE MANUFACTURES SAY OF THE IMPROVED GORDON: 

The New Press is extremely simple. Its movements are easy and graceful. It employs the Fewest 
Pieces Possible, to give the desired results—is the easiest running press built—the mechanical principles 
are those most approved—the facility of changing from form to form, or ink to ink, is unsurpassed—has a 
wide opening between bed and platen—is the quickest to make ready—is thorough in distribution—gives a 
long dwell to the platen to receive the sheet—is perfect in impression—gives the impression with great 
ease—has a long dwell upon the impression—suspends the impression up to the latest moment—allows the 
grippers to be depressed to the tympan and set—fastens the chase to, or releases it from, the bed instantly 
—is accessible in all parts—is perfect in register—can be easily comprehended—possesses Great Strength— 
is noiseless—and, in brief, it is improved all over. 

iNRf Arms.—N ew and substantial Ink Arms, positive and direct in their movement, with ink rods 
having double bearings, are now used for conveying the form rollers, and take the place of the brass 
roller carriers formerly used. With these new Ink Arms it is impossible for the rollers to fall out of place. 
The impression connections are forged from one solid piece of steel.

COLT'S ARMORY PRESS. 

The manufacturers of the Colt’s Armory Press 
make the assertion that it is not a “new” machine 
made up by re-hashing- old patterns, but an original 
model embodying in its design the most advanced 
ideas in mechanical engineering. They are entirely 
beyond comparison with the crude, unmechanical 
affairs generally offered to the trade and dear at 
any price. 

Its success has been most complete. We have the 
honor of referring to many of the best printers of 
the country. What we particularly claim is that, 
dollar for dollar and pound for pound, the Colt’s 
Armory Press is the best value in the market.

The strain-bearing parts are ot wrought iron and 
steel, very heavy, insuring solidity and immense 
strength, and the requisite means for giving pow¬ 
erful impressions and resisting heavy strains. 

The impression, given by a toggle, is absolutely 
accurate and is applied directly back of the centre

THE MIDGET QUOIN. 



No. 1. No. 2. 

The “Midget” Quoin is adapted and especially recommended for use in crowded forms, where little 
room is left between the matter and chase. When unlocked it occupies a space of a little more than a 
pica in thickness. Its pressure when locked is perfectly even, square and powerful. As there is no slip¬ 
ping or sliding of either part of the quoin whilst locking, it can often be used with perfect safety between 
blank spaces where the matter completely fills the chase. Cut No. 1 shows the quoin unlocked, as it is 
placed in the form. A few light taps on the upper portion of the semi-circular part forces it down even 
with the square part, as shown in Cut No. 2. Should the form prove to be insufficiently tight, a lead or 
two placed beside the quoin will adjust it. The entirely new principle upon which this quoin is con¬ 
structed makes it unnecessary to use the key in locking, it being only required in the process of unlocking. 
There is absolutely no friction in its operation, which makes entirely credible the claim that it will never 
wear out. Price, $2.00 per dozen, including unlocking key.

THE BUCKEYE FOUNTAIN. 

The manufacturers say this Fountain will he 
found the easiest to attach, the easiest worked, and 
also the most practical Ink Fountain on the 
market. Its roller is so adjusted as to supply ink 
uniformly on either large or small jobs. Its size 
also makes it practicable to use good or expensive 
ink without any waste, only a small amount being 
required to supply the Fountain. 

Price, fio.oo. 



CHANDLER & PRICE FOUNTAIN. 

lo those whose special work requires greater 
capacity than can be obtained with the Buckeye, 
we offer the Chandler Price Fountain, which is 
so made as to permit contact with the rollers their 
whole length, and will thus furnish a greater supply 
of ink than the Buckeye. Price $20.00. 

PONY FOUNTAIN. 

This Fountain, for Old Style Gordon Presses, has 
a composition ductor roller, which turns when in 
contact with fountain roller receiving the ink, and 
is then depressed to meet the form rollers, turning 
twice in contact with each of them.

HENRY’S SELF INK DISTRIBUTER FOR HAND PRESSES. 

The simple pushing forward and pulling backward once is all that is necessary to take ink and distri¬ 
bute for each sheet as printed. 

This new, perfect and popular machine is rapidly coming into use. Hand press printers have long 
felt the need of an improved method for inking their “Forms,” and this new distributer supplies this 
want. It enables them to secure an even, sharp, clear, clean print, and to issue as finely printed sheets 
as the cylinder press offices, and do it much quicker and easier than by the old method. 

When the paper is ready for press one can make a straight run, the roller boy being able to ink for 
rom 400 to 500 impressions per hour. 

The Henry Machine is light running; is strongly and handsomely built; clean, occupying but little 
more space than the common slab and roller, and is so simple in construction that any one can operate 
it, and there is nothing t) get out of order. The machine is furnished complete, ready for use, as seen by 
the accompanying cut.

JOHNSON CYLINDER-DISK DISTRIBUTION. 



The demand made upon printers in this pro¬ 
gressive age for rapid, and at the same time 
first-class work, has made it a necessity that ink 
should be fed to the Job Press automatically. 

Thorough distribution of the ink fed by foun¬ 
tain to a press provided with a rotating-disk 
has long been desired by the practical, money 
making printer, and the state of the art and 
competition in prices make the demand impera¬ 
tive. 

The “Johnson” Cylinder-Disk Distribution 
shown in the cut (a combination of cylinder and 
disk distribution in its simplest form) meets 
this demand in all respects. Examine it care¬ 
fully; it is worthy of your attention and adoption 
as a practical, economical and money-making 
inking and distributing device for rotating-disk 
job presses. 


COMBINATION OF CYLINDER AND DISK DISTRIBUTION AT WILL. 


Printers will find great convenience and economy in 
this combination of cylinder and <lisk distribntion, 
for the reason that one or both can be used as de¬ 
sired. For heavy forms requiring a body of ink, for 
tints, for cuts, for colors, and for fine work of all 
kinds, use the cylinder-disk distribution. For light 
forms requiring but little ink, remove the distribu¬ 
tor, also the ink cylinder if desired, or, by use of the 
large screw, raise the fountain and ink cylinder so 
as to avoid contact with the form rollers, discon¬ 
nect the rachet dog and use only .the disk, and the 
ordinary disk distribution is at command, with its 
simplicity and ease of manipulation. These are 
points of convenience and economy of great value. 

Every practical printer knows that more than 
half of the “ jobs ” that come into the general job 
printing office are “ worked ” satisfactorily and 
more economically by the disk method of distribu¬ 
tion ; hence, will be seen the benefit of having the 
cylinder-disk distribution, to be used at Will, that 
through its use colors, cuts, tints, and all fine work 
can be done in the best manner on the same press.

AUTOMATIC AUXILIARY CRIPPER. 



Pressmen have always been given to the use of all sorts 
of cumbersome devices in cardboard, string, rubber, or wire 
for temporary relief when the grippers fail. The Automatic 
Auxiliary Gripper cures all this trouble. 

Can be placed instantly at any point of gripper and will 
stay. Admits of the use of a left-hand gauge pin. If margin 
is scant, gripper tongue may be worked between lines. 

Four sizes, to fit any modern job press. Per pair, $1.00

COTTRELL PATENT AIR SPRING 

Country Printing Press 


new series. 



THE illustration above shows COTTRELL’S LATEST IMPROVED COUNTRY PRESS— 
New series. It is adapted to printing Newspapers, Posters, Pamphlets, Circulars, and 
all classes of Commercial work. The machine has been thoroughly remodeled and recon¬ 
structed, special attention having been given to the design and to the proportioning of all parts 
of the work required, making a strong, simple and rapid machine. The side frames are 
changed in design, the flanges projecting inward, the whole presenting a smooth, massive and 
clean appearance. 

The Press is supplied with Patent Air Springs, the resistance of which is increased or 
decreased according to the speed of the Press. It is well known that the faster the speed the 
greater strength of spring is required. The Patent Air Spring covers these requirements. If 
the Press is running at 500 per hour, the spring can be easily regulated for that speed, and if 
running at 1,000 ormore per hour, the proportionate increase of spring can be obtained. The 
Air Spring is provided with an automatic throw-off that releases the spring when the Press is 
stopped, and the pressman can move the bed to and fro without compressing the spring. When 
the Press is started the spring is applied automatically. 

The Press has Patent Hinged Roller Frames, which permit of the form rollers being 
instantly uncovered for removal or other purposes, without unscrewing the sockets. The 
whole machine is substantially built, simple in construction, can be set up and run by any 
printer, and, by the aid of the Patent Air Springs, will run one-third faster than any other 
country Press. 

Si/.e of bed, inside bearers. 33x47 inches. 

Steam fixtures, extra,. 

This Press will print a 6-column quarto newspaper, without crowding. 

Driving wheel, blanket, wrenches, extra roller stocks, roller moulds, ora set of cast rollers, 
and boxing and shipping, are included in price.
